Happy 18th birthday Elliot!


Looking at this photo Elliot looks so grown up.  18 years old yesterday.  He counted down to this.  Elliot has wanted to step into his future and the amazing responsibilities it comes with.  Getting older is scary, and it't exciting too.  Look at how happy he is.  This is a wonderful season in his life.

Here are a lot of photos from my Lightroom downloads on my phone.  Elliot is a good kid.  It's weird thinking about him growing up and moving out.  Going on a mission and not being around all the time.
